JAKARTA - Emily Eavis, a figure who has worked a lot in organizing the Glastonbury Festival in recent years, named Kate Bush as a musician who is expected to become a headliner in the future.

The daughter of the founder of Glastonbury, Sir Michael Eavis hopes that the 65-year-old British singer and songwriter will return on stage.

"I hope that will happen one day," Emily Eavis said during an interview with the BBC on the Late Sidetracked Podcast.

Reflecting on Glastonbury's success in presenting Elton John last year, Emily believes that her party will be able to present the singer of 'Running Up That Hill', which is the OST Stranger Things.

"I mean, Elton was just a dream and it happened, so you'll never know," he said.

Meanwhile, this year's Glastonbury Festival features Dua Lipa, Coldplay, and SZA as the main performers. Emily is very excited to give Dua Lipa her first headline slot in England.

"We created this moment for him (Two Lipa), and it's very interesting," said Emily.

Talking about the holding of her favorite Glastonbury, Emily chose 1995, when Oasis and Pulp became the main performers.

"Because at that time I had just finished my GCSE (middle education certificate). It was the first year I was allowed to go camping," concluded Emily Eavis.

For information, Kate Bush started her career as a teenager with the help of guitarist Pink Floyd, David Gilmour. At the age of 19, Kate topped the charts in England with her debut single 'Wutering Heights' from the album 'The Kick Inside' (1978).

Throughout her career, Kate has released ten album studios, of which 50 Words for Snow (2010) became her last album.
